Chili Mocha Maca Smoothie – Vegan

Happy Wednesday, friends! I’m hopping on here real quick today to share a smoothie that I think you will really love. It’s a rich mix of chocolate and coffee with a hint of ancho chili and cinnamon. It’s a fun spin on the new Starbuck’s mocha flavor, with a lot less calories and sugar. In fact, this creamy vegan mocha smoothie doesn’t have any added sweeteners, and relies on frozen banana for the perfect amount of sweetness. I added maca root for a little superfood power. Maca has been reported to help balance hormones, increase energy, improve mood, support healthy skin, among many other benefits. I love using it in chocolate or nut butter based smoothies.
